HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

...Rosa rugosa, Thunberg....deren gefüllte Varietät seit mehr als 30 jahren Bewohnerin unserer Gärten ist. Demungeachtet wurde die wildwachsende Art neuerdings wieder als "Rosa Regeliana, Linden et André und die Varietät R. rugosa flore pleno unter den Namen "Kaiserin des Nordens"eingeführt. Die Kultur aller hierher gehörenden Varietäten flore albo simplici, flore roseo simplici, flore rubro pleno (Kaiserin des Nordens), Souvenir de Yeddo, Mikada, Taïcoun, Comte de Epremesnil u. A.)ist eine überaus leichte. Sie sind, mit Ausnahme 'Souvenir de Yeddo', welche Varität vom Froste leidet, vollkommen winterhart, gedeihen, ohne beschnitten zu werden, in jedem Boden und in jeder Lage....

Translation:
Rosa rugosa, Thunberg .... whose double variety has lived in our gardens for more than 30 years. Nonetheless, the wild species has recently been reintroduced as "Rosa Regeliana, Linden et André" and the variety R. rugosa flore pleno under the name "Kaiserin des Nordens". The culture of all the varieties that belong here: flore albo simplici, flore roseo simplici, flore rubro pleno (Kaiserin des Nordens), Souvenir de Yeddo, Mikada, Taïcoun, Comte de Epremesnil, etc.) is an extremely light one. With the exception of 'Souvenir de Yeddo', which suffers from frost, they are completely hardy, thrive without to be pruned, in every soil and in every position ...

Rosa rugosa rosea, from Japan, is a comparatively new rose here, aud should be planted with caution. It is a somewhat rampant grower, mossy with spines and makes a picturesque shrub, bearing large, rosy-pink single flowers succeeded by very pretty, brightcolored hips. It mildews in some places, however, pretty badly in summer and fall, which destroys its beauty. Where it succeeds it would make a very picturesque hedge.
